Xu Zhi originally thought that it was only a matter of time before Li Duohuang died of greed, but he didn't expect that the time to come would be related so soon.
October 14th.
Just over a month has passed since the investigation of Wang Dong.
Xu Zhi went to the small building on Zunshang again.
At this time, the five great masters gathered together, and Lu Sheng'an, the auxiliary, sat aside with a slightly reserved look.
"Xiao Xu is here, come and sit with the teacher."
"Okay!"
Lu Sheng'an is more reserved, while Xu Zhi is very casual.
As soon as Situ Xuankong said hello, he sat down on his back.
"Teacher, what kind of party are we having?" Xu Zhi asked in a low voice.
"The first thing we discuss this time is related to you," Huangputu said, "it involves whether to temporarily increase the power of the Inspection Department."
When I asked Situ Xuankong, it was Huang Putu who answered the question. This is a common thing in people's discussions.
As long as it is related to the topic, Huang Putu can always get into the topic quickly and directly.
"Can the power of the Inspection Department be increased a little more?" Xu Zhi asked doubtfully.
His authority as the general government is almost limitless.
The six people here are only one level higher than him.
No matter how high you are, you can only look up to these people.
"You are right. We are negotiating whether to temporarily increase the authority of the Inspection Department by another level." Situ Xuankong nodded.
Xu Zhi glanced at Song Zhongkai, Yan Xingxia, Yan Xuankong, and Lu Sheng'an, and immediately understood why these people had difficulty speaking.
Elevating the authority of the Inspection Department is equivalent to further expanding Song Zhongkai's authority.
The general headquarters of the Inspection Department to which he was affiliated was eventually placed in charge of Song Zhongkai.
If his authority is raised to this level, how should Song Zhongkai calculate it?
The authority of the Yan family is already too high, and both father and son are great masters.
With the current power of the Song family royal family, if they were not in a system like Dongyue's, the Yan family would definitely be a family that needs to be suppressed, and it would be impossible to bring anyone else in.
As for Lu Sheng'an, it had not been long since he was promoted to the position of auxiliary state, and his predecessor had a big problem. At this time, he insisted on talking less and seeing more, and did not talk eloquently.
The last ones to speak were Huang Putu and Situ Xuankong.
"What do you think?" Huang Putu asked.
"If you don't have a few gold medals to protect yourself, Zhong Kai is worried that you won't be able to verify the bitter teaching."
Situ Xuankong added a little, and Xu Zhi immediately understood the reason.
The embarrassment of the Inspection Department lies in these places.
If certain units or people are involved, once their authority exceeds the headquarters of the Inspection Department, or their status is equal to that of the Inspection Department, it will be very difficult for the Inspection Department to inquire, and a slight mistake may easily trigger a backlash.
Such is the case with the Supreme Scientific Research Institute.
No different from the Inspection Department, the Supreme Scientific Research Institute is a neutral organization that is independent of many departments and specializes in scientific research tasks.
Like the Inspection Department, this belongs to Song Zhongkai's hand.
Asking the Inspection Department to inspect the Supreme Scientific Research Institute is equivalent to beating the right hand with the left hand.
When the status is equal and no problem can be found, you have to pay for your mistakes.
After Zhao Mu stepped down and Xu Zhi had the courage to investigate the former auxiliary king's activities, Song Zhongkai began to realize the difficulties of the Inspection Department.
If this continues, there will eventually be nothing to investigate.
Song Zhongkai could not help but wonder whether the outcome would have been better if Xu Zhi had taken action to check Wang Dong directly when he was dissatisfied.
Zhao Mu didn't mention it, and Xu Zhi didn't mention it either. Many great masters are not people who specialize in solving crimes. How could they know that the target these two people wanted to investigate would involve Wang Dong.
"If you find that there is a problem with our Song family, including Hou Ling, Derong, Jing Zhao, Hanwen, any of the heirs of my Song family, or even my Song Zhongkai, you can directly use the general seal to investigate, and I will say nothing.
.”
Song Zhongkai finally spoke, and what he said involved his son, daughter, grandson, and even himself.
His face was slightly distorted, and it was obvious that he had made up his mind.
Xu Zhi pursed his lips. Of course he knew why Song Zhongkai had such an expression when he spoke.
With Yan Xingxia's reminder and some records he saw at the Inspection Department's headquarters, if he traces it carefully, he can directly trace it to the princess named Song Jingzhao.
He was not clean, so he said this reluctantly.
But compared to the overthrow of the Song family royal family, Dongyue's black market seems less important.
His statement also addressed many great masters and new auxiliary states, and even involved institutions that were previously equal to the Inspection Department.
If Xu Zhi really discovers something, he must also cooperate with the investigation.
Wang Dong, who has been with each other for decades, is inextricably linked to the hard education, which makes him very hurt.
"The investigation will be carried out if necessary, and we are no exception, as are the persons in charge of our family's industries, as well as the many provincial directors and agency heads involved," Yan Xingxia also said.
"The emperor's relatives will investigate directly, and the Grand Master and Grand Master will also investigate directly." Yan Xuankong nodded and said: "You should go through Dongyue Zai carefully and catch out all the pests."
"If I have a problem, I am willing to submit to the law."
Lu Sheng'an on the side nodded and interjected, expressing his attitude.
"If we can improve it a little bit, really anyone can check it. We don't have to worry about public opinion, the remonstrance officer's backlash, and public opinion, etc.?" Xu Zhi asked tentatively.
"As long as you suspect it is related to the Ku Cult, go and investigate directly," Song Zhongkai said, "We will suppress the others."
"But an inspection is an inspection, and you are not allowed to use public tools for private use. If there are mistakes, they must be corrected in time." Huang Putu added: "Once the verification goes wrong, you may need to pay a large amount of treasury compensation to cover up such a situation."
"So your authority can only be a temporary promotion. It is a special treatment during a special period. It will not be inherited to the next general manager. It also has a certain time limit."
Situ Xuankong added, and finally spoke out the decisions everyone had discussed.
"No problem." Xu Zhi nodded and said, "If I ask for someone from the Research Institute after my authority is upgraded, can I ask for it directly?"
"who?"
"Huo Yingshan."
Wang Dong's clues were cut off, and Xu Zhi could only find the crazy Huo Yingshan.
When he said his name, everyone was stunned for a moment.
"Huo Yingshan is really related to the bitter religion?" Song Zhongkai asked bitterly.
The verification of Huo Yingshan undoubtedly brought considerable trouble to Zhao Mu. At that time, there was an uproar in Kyoto, and the admonishment officials bombarded the study every day.
Zhao Mu wanted to check, and Xu Zhi also brought up the old matter.
This can't help but make people think a lot.
"You should know very well that it is difficult to obtain evidence of the Kujiao. I have no actual evidence." Xu Zhi spread his hands and said, "But I guess he has something to do with the Kujiao."
"A lunatic." Huang Putu frowned and said, "What can you find out about him?"
"Perhaps he can return to normal one day," Xu Zhi said with a smile, "At least he is prepared."
Before the authority was determined, Xu Zhi came up with a troublesome thing.
It has not been too long since the Huo Yingshan incident. If the verification of Huo Yingshan is restarted, how can we calm down the emotions of the researchers at the highest scientific research institute?
Xu Zhi's reasons for checking a crazy Huo Yingshan were not sufficient.
This is far more difficult than when Zhao Mu went to the Supreme Scientific Research Institute to get people with the help of an inspection order.
But we can’t give Xu Zhi the first step after elevating his authority.
"What the hell."
Song Zhongkai cursed without grace, which surprised Lu Sheng'an, who was used to Song Zhongkai's elegant state.
"Relax." Situ Xuankong patted Lu Sheng'an on the shoulder and said, "We are human beings, and we will curse when we are anxious. This matter with Zhong Kai is quite difficult to handle. He is very manic now."
Only Song Zhongkai came forward to smooth things over at the Supreme Scientific Research Institute.
This is a lot of trouble.
When scraping bones and treating poison, the difficulties faced will obviously be endless.
"How about we use the excuse that General Xu has the secret to melt ice and invite Huo Yingshan to the General Office of the Inspection Department for recuperation?" Lu Sheng'an suggested.
"Hahaha, Xiao Lu, I didn't expect you to be quite smart, hahaha..."
Song Zhongkai thought about Lu Sheng'an's suggestion for a while, and his face finally became much more normal and his mood became cheerful.
Although the excuse given by the Inspection Department to provide medical treatment to the staff of the Research Institute is a bit lame, as long as it can be used, it is a good excuse.
Many things require such an articulate reason when doing things.
"This matter has been resolved, let's move on to the next topic."
Huang Putu was typing on the small blackboard again, and now he entered into the second topic.
